The simplest way to deal with this is to vote with your feet :-) IE don't use his stuff. Letting the Asterisk owners know that he is withholding source is also a good option - their code let them fuss with it...

Just to make sure that is clear! I hate what Doug's doing myself, which is why I'm switching myself back to RAT-RC1.

Absolutely not. We all benefit from the work Mark Spencer and many others did in creating Asterisk. Those folks released Asterisk under the GPL, which obligates EVERYBODY who uses Asterisk as a base to build something else to in turn release the source code. If you refuse to release your source code, you may NOT use Asterisk. If you don't want to release your code, go write your own Asterisk. ================================================================ Dr. Willem A.
